GIVING BIRTH TO NEW LAWS
 Thinking of how many ways the government should fantasize for better policies give the people an unpredictable new society.
             In the time of President Marcos when Marshall Law and abusive authorities  were rampant, laws were given by few self-proclaimed “Makamasang Politiko”. It was not hard for them to implement such policies because  people on that time were like puppets played by their governmental ventriloquists.
But now, with enlightened men and women; who  are now able to distinguish the RIGHT ONE from PROMINENT ONE, it will become the   dilemma for the position of the government. They cannot create laws without objections and without villain.
             This is not like the old society wherein people chose Fernando Poe Jr. rather than Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Our country is not a stage nor an action field for some guy who just wanted to served without skills.
             With all the laws that had been passed, the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012 was most controversial that President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino had signed without handshakes and photographs. This law provides funds for contraceptives and hardens the knowledge about family planning. This also explains why the Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) are eager to settle the issue on public saying that the law destroys the sanctity of life and promotes abortion.
             This just it. A never ending issue about human and their heinous sins. But the fact is the church cannot provides the public the needed attention to overcome the augmenting cases of malnutrition for kids, overpopulation, as well as being ignorant to the true unstoppable realities of our country.
This is not all about  the bible.
             On the other hand, laws like Sin Tax and Cybercrime are just waste of time. We live in a democratic country wherein freedom to speak and stand for yourself are always legal. In layman’s term, “chismis” with sense and freewill.
             Let us not consider the government as the only institution which can help us to have better lives. Lawmakers are not our bosses. The true bosses here are ourselves. We should let be responsible for all the things that are happening in this country for we all live inside this one world that we are free to choose and live our own life — with or without laws.

Life Today /vol. 2/

What am I thinking just about right now? As a prologue to this self-proclaimed novel, let me first describe this wondrous night of 28th where November is just about to lose its glorious turn in this year of the sheep. Well, the noises were really evident with entertaining voices that were overlapping in a series of changing channels; the night has been splashing icey rains since the weather station announced to has been monitoring a possible typhoon; the smell of freshly brewed coffee that was left intact under my nostrils as I was drinking it earlier before I got home; the frenzied emotion I have feeling as I finally kiss my bed goodnight after that long and tiring battle for eternal city traffic. So imagine how it was entirely engaging (or probably not) to put my thoughts into a thousand repeated letters which I can call my blog. And yeah that was one hell of an introduction! As I am clinging with the literal scenarios of my daily life, I have come to unde...

LIFE TODAY /vol. 1/

I have been wondering lately why some people have already reached what they desired for in lives that easy, while others, with long full of prayers, faith and perseverance are getting piled up in between of success and failures. Unfair isn't it? That's what most of the people would think also. And for the longest of time, I have always found myself clinging to that absurdity. Why not? Think about the times you have to auditioned in a drama play carrying your wit and positive aura but after all you've gone through you were rejected because someone with a beautiful face and appeal suddenly appeared out of nowhere. With his "pa-cute" smile and audience impact, he got in instead of you. Or think about the times you have to walked for a long distance just to go to school while your classmate (who happened to be your neighbor) was always ahead of you because he has a car of his own. Think about the time you have your first crush but he doesn't even turn an inch whe...

Sa Isang Iglap : Pag-amin (PART 1)

Hindi ko namalayan na iniisip na pala kita. Akala ko naaalala ko lang 'yung mga bagay na nangyari sakin sa isang buong araw. Akala ko normal lamang na maglaro ka sa imahinasyon ko dahil bahagi ka ng labing-dalawang oras ko sa kalsada.  Nagtataka lang ako. 'Nung una, isang tipikal na araw lamang ang pagpasok sa opisina. Isang tipikal na oras lamang ang paghikab sa jeep ng dalawang oras. Isang tipikal na minuto lamang ang pagtambay sa cafeteria nang nag-iisa. Pero ngayon parang ang mga bahaging iyon ay hindi na mauulit kasi dumating ka. Nagtataka lang ako. Sanay akong mag-isa. Lahat ata ng bagay ginagawa ko ng walang tulong. Kumakain sa labas ng mag-isa, nagkakape sa labas ng mag-isa, bumibili ng libro mag-isa, tumatambay sa Happy Lemon ng mag-isa. Pero ngayon tinatanong ko sa sarili ko kung pwede ba kitang yayain minsan? Tambay naman tayo.  Nagtataka lang ako. Bago ka dumating, isa akong pribadong tao, misteryoso sa paningin ng iba. Lahat sinasarili ko,...
